Bent Frequency Duo Project: A Standout Performance in the Cannon Classical Music Series
Bent Frequency Duo Project performs as part of the Cannon Classical Music Series.
Northeast Georgia Mountains
Sautee Nacoochee
The Cannon Classical Music Series brings the best of local and regional live classical music to the stage of the Sautee Nacoochee Center. In this intimate, 98-seat theatre, there is no bad seat and the execution and vibrancy of every performance rings true.
Percussionist Stuart Gerber and saxophonist Jan Berry Baker are The Bent Frequency Duo Project. Stuart and Jan have commissioned over 20 new works for their duo and have given countless performances of this new repertoire across the US, Mexico, and Europe since 2014.
Atlanta-based Bent Frequency is the Southeast's premiere contemporary music ensemble. Founded in 2003, the group brings the avant-garde to life through adventurous and socially conscious programming, cross-disciplinary collaborations and community engagement. Committed to exploding marginalized programming in classical music, one of BF's primary goals is championing the work of historically underrepresented composers. Hailed as "one of the brightest new music ensembles on the scene today" by Gramophone magazine, BF engages an eclectic mix of the most adventurous and impassioned players in Atlanta.
Bent Frequency is an ensemble in residence at Georgia State University. As the BF Duo Project, Jan and Stuart have commissioned over 25 new pieces for saxophone and percussion and have toured extensively across the US and Europe. Their first CD, Diamorpha, was released on Centaur Records in May 2017.
An artist meet-and-greet follows every performance.
